I was sayin' goodbye to him (Baby)
So I can be here with you (So I could be with you, baby)
Before you give up on us (Oh)
You gotta (My) hear my side (My) of the story (Side)

I told him that it was over (I told him it was over)
I just needed the closure (I just needed some closure)
To give you all of my lovin'
Now you've heard my side of the story

I was sayin' goodbye to him (Before you leave, before you go)
So I can be here with you (There?s just one thing you need to know, I loved you)
Before you give up on us (I need you, I want you so, baby)
You gotta hear my side of the story

I told him that it was over
I just needed the closure
To give you all of my lovin'
Now you've heard my side of the story
